How perfectly charming! Love the stone cottage although I would find it hope to find it cool and dark on such a hot here in OR. Maddie looks completely content on the little table or bench in the woods.

The white house is wonderful! It has not been summer in Holland this year. It is so chilly that I wear sweaters and keep quilts over me for warmth. I just told my husband that we need to start the woodstove tonight. I do not want to put on the heat since it is August. I am thinking a cup of hot cocoa would taste good right now. :-)

I think of thee when soft and wideThe evening spreads her robesof light.And like a young and timid brideSits blushing in the arms of night.And when the moon's sweetcrescent springsIt's light o'er heaven's deepwaveless sea,And stars are forth likeblessed things,I think of thee! I think of thee!
